:''This article is about the large island found on the seas of [[Labrynna]] in [[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]. For the small, similarly named island in {{TWW}}, see [[Crescent Moon Island]].
{{Name|Natzu}} is the name given to a dynamic location in {{OoS}}, located in central [[Holodrum]]. Its landscape and its name on the [[Map#World Map|overworld map]] is determined by which [[Link's Partners|animal companion's]] [[Strange Flute|flute]] [[Link]] possesses. Link will encounter:
 
:*'''Natzu Prairie''' with [[Ricky]] as a companion.<br>
 
:*'''Natzu River''' with [[Dimitri]] as a companion.<br>
 
:*'''Natzu Wasteland''' with [[Moosh]] as a companion.<br>
 
   
  +
'''Crescent Island''' is an eponymous landmass located on the southern seas in southeastern [[Labrynna]], in {{OoA}}.
==Geography==
 
[[File:Natzu Cave.png|thumb|right|The cave with moving platforms]]
 
Natzu is located in central Holodrum at the base of the northern mountains. To the east of Natzu is the [[Moblin Keep]], which Link must pass through to reach [[Sunken City]]. The entrance to Natzu lies in [[North Horon]], but it is barred by a pitfall, meaning Link must obtain the [[Roc's Feather]] from [[Poison Moth's Lair]] to reach the area. Near the entrance, Link can flip a [[switch]] with his [[sword]] to extend a drawbridge connecting the area to [[Tarm Ruins]].
 
   
  +
==Overview==
The landscape of Natzu changes to suit the abilities of Link's animal companion, without whom Link is unable to navigate the area.<ref>{{Cite book|quote= Most players will end up with Ricky as their pet [...] If players end up with Moosh or Dimitri, however, the landscape will change to accentuate the creature's special abilities. Ledges that Ricky must jump over will be replaced by pits for Moosh and rough water for Dimitri.|book= The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons and Ages Official Nintendo Player's Guide|publisher= [[Nintendo Power]]|page= 28}}</ref> If Link enters the Natzu area without obtaining any flute, the landscape will default to Natzu Prairie, and Ricky will automatically be chosen as Link's companion.

Crescent Island is inhabited uniquely by the reptilian [[Tokay]],<ref>{{cite|Do you know of the Tokay? I hear there's an island full of them across the sea!|A citizen of Lynna Village|OoA}}</ref> a friendly and playful folk, who seem to not have much contact, if any at all, with the outside world, as they do not realize what [[Link]] is at first upon his shipwreck arrival.<ref>{{Cite|I've never seen a Tokay like you. You have ears. Are you a long-eared Tokay?|Tokay|OOA}}</ref> This is likely due to the fact that the island on which they live is almost entirely cut off from the outside world.
   
  +
In the past age, the sea floods the less elevated mid-western section of the island, forming a small bay that gives the island its crescent-like shape from which it is named. Near the center of the island, on a small peninsula jutting out into the bay, stands a statue of a Tokay, which the island natives consider to be their "guardian".<ref>{{Cite|Our guardian is at the center of the island. When the sun climbs high into the sky, the sea comes in and you can't get to him.|Tokay|OOA}}</ref> In the present, however, the sea will have receded, drying out the bay and uncovering more of the island, causing tropical vegetation to sprout in the area. Hidden by the growth, the ancient Tokay statue still stands. In reality, the statue's open mouth is the entrance to the [[Moonlit Grotto]], the third dungeon of the game. In the past, the same opening becomes the entrance to a passageway leading to the [[Ancient Tomb]], the final dungeon of the game.
*'''Natzu Prairie''' features grassy plateaus which can only be cleared by Ricky's jumping ability.
 
*'''Natzu River''' features deep waters and strong currents fed by a waterfall. Dimitri's strong swimming ability allows Link to traverse the river.
 
*'''Natzu Wasteland''' features an arid terrain littered with pitfalls that can only be cleared with Moosh's flight ability.

[[File:Crescent Island (Past).png|thumb|165px|left|Crescent Island in the past]]
Natzu Prairie, River, and Wasteland all feature the same three caves, though some vary in location. One is a [[Fairy Fountain]], while another is the home of a singing [[Deku Scrub]], who will upgrade the capacity of Link's [[Seed Satchel]] when given the [[Linked Game/Secrets#Deku Secret|Deku Secret]]. In Natzu River, this cave is located inside the waterfall. Dimitri's abilities allow the young hero to swim up the waterfall into the cave. The third cave is invariable in location; it stands on a strip of land at the base of [[Goron Mountain]] that is separated from the rest of Natzu by a river. Inside, Link must cross a gap via moving platforms to reach a [[Treasure Chest]] containing 50 [[Rupee]]s.
 
   
  +
Crescent Island is littered with caves and grottoes, where many of the Tokay can be found. The Tokay community is established mostly on the eastern end of the island in the form of a small village of huts. In the past, the [[Wild Tokay]] mini-game can be found in the area. A trading post named [[Tokay Traders]] can be found on an islet northeast of the island. In the present, the Wild Tokay mini-game is replaced by the [[Wild Tokay Museum]], which honors the games the Tokay played long ago.<ref>{{Cite|This is the Wild Tokay Museum. We Tokay used to play here long ago, but not anymore.|Tokay|OOA}}</ref> Inside one of the huts Link will find a particular Tokay who plays a role in the [[Oracle of Ages Trading Sequence]].

Towards the northern end of the island is a small clearing of fertile soil, dubbed the "tree nursery" by the Tokay.

'''Crescent Strait''' is a small channel of water north of the island, placed between it and the Sea of No Return. The strait separates Crescent Island from the [[South Shore]], the southern border of Labrynna's mainland. With the [[Mermaid Suit]], Link is able to swim below the surface, where the entrance to the maze beneath Crescent Island is located. Due to the recession of the sea some time between the past and present ages, the strait is smaller in the present than it is in the past.

With the raft, Link sails towards Crescent Island. However, partway during the journey, a storm blows over the sea, scuttling the raft. The hero awakens on the shores of Crescent Island, surrounded by a group of curious Tokay. Seeing him stir, the Tokay scatter, taking with them all Link's items. Link explores the island, searching for each Tokay that stole one of his items, using each new item to access a new area of the island. Two of Link's items, the [[Power Bracelet]] and the [[Roc's Feather]], can be found at the [[Tokay Traders]] trading post, which he will have to buy back with [[Mystical Seeds]]. If Link does not have the seeds to make the trade, he can temporarily exchange his [[Shovel]] for one of the items.

This article is about the large island found on the seas of Labrynna in Oracle of Ages. For the small, similarly named island in The Wind Waker, see Crescent Moon Island.

Crescent Island is an eponymous landmass located on the southern seas in southeastern Labrynna, in Oracle of Ages.

Overview

Crescent Island is inhabited uniquely by the reptilian Tokay,[1] a friendly and playful folk, who seem to not have much contact, if any at all, with the outside world, as they do not realize what Link is at first upon his shipwreck arrival.[2] This is likely due to the fact that the island on which they live is almost entirely cut off from the outside world.

In the past age, the sea floods the less elevated mid-western section of the island, forming a small bay that gives the island its crescent-like shape from which it is named. Near the center of the island, on a small peninsula jutting out into the bay, stands a statue of a Tokay, which the island natives consider to be their "guardian".[3] In the present, however, the sea will have receded, drying out the bay and uncovering more of the island, causing tropical vegetation to sprout in the area. Hidden by the growth, the ancient Tokay statue still stands. In reality, the statue's open mouth is the entrance to the Moonlit Grotto, the third dungeon of the game. In the past, the same opening becomes the entrance to a passageway leading to the Ancient Tomb, the final dungeon of the game.

Crescent Island (Past)

Crescent Island in the past

Crescent Island is littered with caves and grottoes, where many of the Tokay can be found. The Tokay community is established mostly on the eastern end of the island in the form of a small village of huts. In the past, the Wild Tokay mini-game can be found in the area. A trading post named Tokay Traders can be found on an islet northeast of the island. In the present, the Wild Tokay mini-game is replaced by the Wild Tokay Museum, which honors the games the Tokay played long ago.[4] Inside one of the huts Link will find a particular Tokay who plays a role in the Oracle of Ages Trading Sequence. This Tokay, who is actually the chef of the village, will exchange the Stink Bag for a piece of his own Tasty Meat.

Towards the northern end of the island is a small clearing of fertile soil, dubbed the "tree nursery" by the Tokay. It is said that, long ago, a Scent Tree once stood in the clearing.[5] If a Scent Seedling is planted in the nursery in the past age, it will become a full-fledged Scent Tree in the present.[6]

In the present age, a winding underwater maze exists beneath the island.[7] A small grotto can be found and the end of the maze. Inside the grotto is a Treasure Chest containing a Piece of Heart.

Crescent Strait

Crescent Strait is a small channel of water north of the island, placed between it and the Sea of No Return. The strait separates Crescent Island from the South Shore, the southern border of Labrynna's mainland. With the Mermaid Suit, Link is able to swim below the surface, where the entrance to the maze beneath Crescent Island is located. Due to the recession of the sea some time between the past and present ages, the strait is smaller in the present than it is in the past.

Story

Getting to the Island

To access the isolated island, Link requires a Raft. The raft is made by Rafton in past-age Labrynna, once Link has given him the Cheval Rope,[8] a special rope that does not decay in water.[9] Along with the Zora's Flippers, the rope is obtained from Cheval's Tomb in the Yoll Graveyard. To access the tomb, the young hero requires the aid of Moosh, one of the animal companions he meets on his adventure. To obtain the raft, he will also need to get the Island Chart from Tingle.[10][11] To reach Tingle in the Forest of Time Link will require the help of Ricky, another animal companion.

The Island

With the raft, Link sails towards Crescent Island. However, partway during the journey, a storm blows over the sea, scuttling the raft. The hero awakens on the shores of Crescent Island, surrounded by a group of curious Tokay. Seeing him stir, the Tokay scatter, taking with them all Link's items. Link explores the island, searching for each Tokay that stole one of his items, using each new item to access a new area of the island. Two of Link's items, the Power Bracelet and the Roc's Feather, can be found at the Tokay Traders trading post, which he will have to buy back with Mystical Seeds. If Link does not have the seeds to make the trade, he can temporarily exchange his Shovel for one of the items.

In order to buy back all his items, Link will need to acquire Scent Seeds. To do so, he must win the Scent Seedling, a prize obtained from the Wild Tokay mini-game, then planting it in the "tree nursery". Many years later, in the present age, the tree will seedling will grow into a Scent Tree, allowing Link to gather his first Scent Seeds and use them to buy back the rest of his items. With all his items, Link is able to enter the Moonlit Grotto dungeon and obtain the Echoing Howl, the third Essence of Time.

Leaving the Island

After completing the dungeon, Link meets his third animal companion, Dimitri, washed up on the shores of the island. Two Tokay nearby, mistaking Dimitri for a fish, plan to cook him and eat him.[12] Link comes to Dimitri's rescue by trading the Tokay Ember Seeds in exchange for their "fish".[13] Thankful for the rescue, Dimitri allows Link to ride on his back. Thanks to Dimitri's swimming ability, Link is able to leave the island. The young hero can return to the island any time he chooses if he receives Dimitri's Flute, or after obtaining the Mermaid Suit.


Much later on in the game, Link returns to the island to obtain the final Essence of Time. Inserting the Tokay Eyeball into the empty eye socket of the Tokay statue reveals the entrance to a passageway leading to the Sea of No Return and the Ancient Tomb therein.

Trivia

  • North of Crescent Island, there exists a small islet that can be accessed from the strait. On this islet is a patch of soil where a Gasha Seed can be planted.
  • An island with a similar name, Crescent Moon Island, appears in The Wind Waker.
